Where have we been lately? A large part of our knowledge and experience is a result of personal visits to the destinations that we promote. Trips In 2009 World Travel Market The largest travel trade show in the world is held every November in London, England. This is where travel professionals attending can meet with their international suppliers, obtain new ideas for itineraries, strengthen their knowledge about worldwide destinations and much more. Our GM is attending this show (in very comfortable walking shoes) for 3 days to get more information on cruises, group tours in Europe and Middle East, China tours, and many other destinations. This website is continually being changed and updates as we add more travel options for our customers. Get ready! Our GM, Lilliam, recently visited Israel for five days, and found the destination fascinating. From a Christian, archaeological and cultural perspective, Israel offers a large variety of choices in tours, accommodations and activities. The Galilee area is now very popular for mountain biking, ATV tours, whitewater rafting and hiking. And there's no question that the historical and religious sites are truly inspiring. Lilliam also likes to write and take photos and has written a short article about her experience. Read more about her trip to Israel. Also review the itineraries available for groups or individuals. Other recent visits also include Jamaica. An unbelievable change has occurred on this Caribbean island over the past few years, with a multitude of new all-inclusive resorts built in the Montego Bay and Ocho Rios area. Golf is one of the favorite past times, whether you play for free as a guest of Sandals or Beaches properties in Ocho Rios (caddie mandatory and highly valuable), or whether you elect to stay in Montego Bay area and play the higher-priced courses. And since most airlines allow at least 2 bags free on international trips, take your clubs! Cancun continues to be a popular destination due to its proximity to the U.S. and the large number of direct flights. We highly recommend this destination, especially the resorts in the Riviera Maya area just south of the Cancun strip. All travel advisories have been lifted and the hotels and resorts are ready to welcome visitors! Dominican Republic is also a growing destination. Both the Punta Cana area and the area of La Romana have seen a huge growth in new all-inclusive resorts as well as upscale boutique hotels. The down side to Dominican Republic are the road conditions. But that doesn't deter the folks who enjoy great beaches and even better golf. The Grande Dame of golf continues to be Teeth of the Dog (see golf package). Other golf packages are coming soon. Belize - the original Mecca for divers - is now a Mecca for everything outdoors! Unfortunately, Belize City - a frequent stop for cruise ship visitors - is not even a sample of the true beautiful outdoors that Belize offers. Whether you visit an upscale resort like Cayo Espanto or an even more beautiful mountain resort one hour away (by plane) at Machaca Hill Lodge, Belize is truly a spectacular destination. Southern Belize is unspoiled, clean and warmly welcomes visitors but you will not see any crowds of tourists. It's the best diving, fishing (both fresh and saltwater), visit unique Mayan Ruins virtually by yourself, have a picnic by waterfalls with nobody around, and enjoy five-star accommodations and dining. Trips in 2008 Turks & Caicos was relatively unknown for many years. The most unique aspect of this destination is that there are only two all-inclusive resorts, (Club Med and Beaches) and the remaining accommodations are villas and homes, or week-long apartment rentals. Beaches has expanded the resort tremendously, now offering three different villages - French, Caribbean and Italian - as well as 16 restaurants. Switzerland - Unbelievably easy to visit due to the oustanding public transportation available on trains and buses throughout the country. Itineraries include arrival in Geneva and tour of that old city, visit to Mount Zermatt (used by Paramount Pictures as their logo), whitewater rafting, hiking and top notch Swiss spa treatments in St Moritz, and more. English, German and French are all official languages, depending on which part of the country you are staying. | ![]() Affiliate Member ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Orlando Airport $5.49 per day ![]() International Phone Sim Card 30% off Passports & Visas |
